TrueDelta Reviews the Real Gas Mileage of the Honda Odyssey

Honda Odyssey Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	"Most fuel-efficient minivan" might seem like faint praise, but the Honda Odyssey does hold this title. For such a large vehicle EPA ratings of 19 mpg city, 28 mpg highway are fairly impressive. The Toyota checks in with 18/25, the Chrysler with 17/25. see full Honda Odyssey review

2011	4dr Minivan, ext. 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	So are we are happy. 24 mpg in mixed and 28 on a road trip. see full Honda Odyssey review
2009	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Best gas mileage so far is 25 mpg. Typically get high teens to low 20s. see full Honda Odyssey review
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 241-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	With VCM, better EPA highway rating than Sienna. see full Honda Odyssey review

2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	Fuel economy is reasonable for a family hauler that can carry up to 8 persons. I get 25-27 mpg on the freeway and 18-22 mpg in city/suburban driving. see full Honda Odyssey review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	VCM added MPG see full Honda Odyssey review
2005	4dr Minivan, ext. 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	It is better then a SUV! see full Honda Odyssey review

2004	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	a little better than the Sienna see full Honda Odyssey review
2000	4dr Minivan, ext. 210-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	We've owned this van for almost 12 years now and its fuel economy has stood still at 20MPG in just about any set of circumstances. Unimpressive but consistant. see full Honda Odyssey review

Honda Odyssey Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	0	Driven sensibly at 60-65, fuel economy seemed excellent, but step-wise, for every 5 mph over, fuel economy seemed to drop precipitously. However, the "ECO" function, in which 3 cylinders "drop out" when not needed, seemed to work well, assuming good momentum at the moment. So I can't complain too much. see full Honda Odyssey review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	These days, we should be getting much more than 24 mpg from all cars -- even minivans. see full Honda Odyssey review
2007	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	Way, way worse than advertised in 2007. If I knew it was this poor I would not have bought it. Worse than my Chevrolet Trailblazer 4x4! see full Honda Odyssey review
2005	4dr Minivan, ext. 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD	I guess we average around 19 mpg. see full Honda Odyssey review
2002	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Our previous car was a VW diesel. Need I say more? see full Honda Odyssey review
2002	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Only 13-17 MPG. Bad at nearly $4/gallon see full Honda Odyssey review
2002	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	16-mpg. mixed driving. Bad. Much worse than EPA estimate. Dealer is big on excuses. Nothing on real help. see full Honda Odyssey review
2002	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	It seems lower than other vans see full Honda Odyssey review
2002	4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD	Never got over 20 miles per gallon on the open road despite modest driving habits. My Routan gets 26 and my Plymouth Voyageur got 25 +. The 3.5 V6 in the Honda is reliable, but terrible economy for a mini-van. see full Honda Odyssey review

Volkswagen Eos Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	2dr Hardtop conv. turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	On the freeway, I get 32 MPG with the cruise set at 65. Around town, I get about 30, driving conservatively. On my commute, I find that I get 27 if I drive like everyone else, zooming and stopping. If I make an effort to minimize braking, and coast on the hills and where ever possible, I’ve gotten as high as 35 MPG on the same route. The car does need 91 octane—it will run on 89 octane, but the mileage goes down, so it is a false economy. see full Volkswagen Eos review
2008	2dr Hardtop conv. turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	31 mpg plus on road trips see full Volkswagen Eos review
2008	2dr Hardtop conv. turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	For my short commute I average 25 mpg. Driving longer distances with the top up I get better than 32 mpg. see full Volkswagen Eos review

Volkswagen Eos Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	2dr Hardtop conv. turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	I have averaged 27.3 MPG since new which in itself is not bad but the engine requires a minimum of 91 octane fuel. Based on availability that makes it require 93 octane fuel. If the added fuel cost is considered that effectively makes fuel cost the same as a car averaging 25 MPG using 87 octane fuel. Most of my driving is highway and I do not view this as economical for a 2 liter 4. My other car has a 35% more powerful engine and is both larger and heavier but has lower fuel cost. see full Volkswagen Eos review
